I also have a Model 60 that I bought when I was 18, almost 40 years ago. I agree with puma guy about being able to lock the bolt open, and load and unload it without putting my hand in front of the muzzle. I can see how an inexperienced, or improperly trained person could be injured, but the same can be said about almost any firearm. I love mine, it is a tack driver, and after almost 40 years and thousands of rounds, it has never failed with any ammo I have used. I am probably going to get a 10/22, take down, in the future, just for it's portability, but I still enjoy shooting my model 60. I think I paid about $69.00 for it from Western Auto, back in the day. The stock has some scratches, on it, but all of the metal finish is still in great shape.
